Who maintains stormwater pipes and drains?

In Auckland, the responsibility for maintaining stormwater pipes and drains is divided between private and public assets. Property owners bear the responsibility for the upkeep of private stormwater assets located on their property. These assets encompass a range of installations, including catchpits, drains, spouting, grates, pipes, rain tanks, roof gutters, rain gardens, permeable paving, living roofs, ponds, wetlands, detention tanks, streams, overland flow paths, and soakage pits and bores. It's important to note that public stormwater assets can sometimes be situated on private land, thus complicating ownership and maintenance responsibilities. The boundary between public and private stormwater pipes typically lies where private stormwater pipes connect to the public network, or where such a connection extends into a neighbour’s property or a public reserve.

Storm water drainage systems are vital for urban water management, aiming to reduce rainwater impact on the cityscape. These systems include traditional piped systems for quick water transport to prevent flooding, detention basins for temporary stormwater storage, and retention ponds for long-term water retention and groundwater recharge. Auckland also utilises bioretention systems like rain gardens to filter pollutants, green roofs to absorb rainfall and enhance insulation, and permeable paving for better water percolation and quality. Additionally, swales and constructed wetlands are employed for their natural filtration benefits. Each system is crucial for managing Auckland's stormwater challenges, ensuring flood risk reduction and water quality protection.
